1. The following questions relate to a right angled triangle with side lengths
a = 8, b = 6 and hypotenuse = x
(a) find x
(b) Draw the triangle, labeling all edges.
label the angle made between face a and the hypotenuse A
label the angle made between face b and the hypotenuse B
label the right angle C.
(c) find the angles 6 ABC and 6 BAC
(1+3+4 = 8)
(2+2+2 = 6)

9, 6, 15, 30, 106, 52, 8, 52, 64, 27, 13, 95, 36, 40.
(a) Construct a frequency table with columns for both frequency and
cumulative frequency. group the data in intervals of $20000
(b) construct a histogram for the data (no technology)
(c) construct a cumulative histogram for the data
(d) add a frequency polygon to both of your histograms
(2+2+2+2 = 8)
